Is 'play like I play' emblematic of bad and/or stupid attitude? Sounds like 'no regard for my team or teammates 'cause it's all about the me.'
Ran across this looking for something else.
We would have been way too happy to have Nic at this point. I liked him when I sat with Groce in the suite at Indiana HS State Finals. I remember several folks in the suite saying he was "too short to play college ball" He was a premier PG in HS and has run the show at SMU since he transferred.
As a short person he has always had a chip on his shoulder and many tried to take his accomplishments and down play them since grade school. He is the reason the Plumlees went to HS in NC instead of Indiana. When coach politely informed Dad that Miles and Mason were not Magic JOhnson type players Pops took them off to NC and Nic lead the team to state Finals against a young Smith-Rivera despite the loss of the 3 Duke bound Plums.
Nic is a consummate PG and has nothing but respect and regard for his team mates choosing to make them better rather than be a shoot first PG. Could not be more wrong with the quote above.
